[Bug 1710993] Re: PulseAudio requirement breaks Firefox on ALSA-only systems after 55.0.1 update
Mans, are you crazy? Firefox don't compile, so we decide add Pulseaudio for ALL USERS OF LUBUNTU. It's not your choice. It's our systems, and we don't like Pulseaudio. Because this we use Lubuntu. Lightweight distro for servers and old workstations (from Pentium 3 700 Mhz, yes). Your decision is wrong. You must recompile firefox with Alsa support, because you maintainers, and Mozilla team says that maintainers must support alsa, if they want. You want. Because Lubuntu is Pulseaudio-free distro. I not asking you, not begging. Because you not asked thousands and millions users of Lubuntu about this piece of Pulse.

[Bug 1710993] Re: PulseAudio requirement breaks Firefox on ALSA-only systems after 55.0.1 update
I believe the problem is not with pulseaudio, and with indicator-sound-
gtk2, as Simon stated, it is not lubuntu-meta problem:
apt-cache show lubuntu-core lubuntu-desktop lubuntu-default-settings |
awk '$1 == "Version:" { version = $2 } $1 == "Package:" { package = $2 }
$1 == "Depends:" || $1 == "Recommends:" { for (i = 2; i <= NF; i++) {
sub(/,$/, "", $i); print $i >> "/tmp/" package "-" version } }'
diff -iuw /tmp/lubuntu-core-0.65 /tmp/lubuntu-core-0.65.2 #
+xserver-xorg-video-intel nothing relevant
diff -iuw /tmp/lubuntu-desktop-0.65 /tmp/lubuntu-desktop-0.65.2 # +pulseaudio
diff -iuw /tmp/lubuntu-default-settings-0.46
/tmp/lubuntu-default-settings-0.46.1 # +indicator-sound-gtk2
As I said on post #30 when updating just lubuntu-core and lubuntu-
desktop it brings few packages, so that is why I believe the problem is
with indicator-sound-gtk2.

Thanks, Simon Quigley. How I dare to think it's your problem at first place. Shame on me. The real question behind everything in my post you quoted is that you avoid: Why pulseaudio requires cheese and evolution. Do I (or anyone else) expect to hear a sound from the speakers of the computer without these programs? What about unity-control-center and other unity-*? Where are kde-control-center, cinnamon-control-center and whatever? Where are my beloved apple-control-center or windows-control-center packages? How may I hear anything without the Bill's smile on my screen? One of reasons for me (and many others) to choose lubuntu instead of Ubuntu is low system requirements. I write my previos post not to tell anyone what is his problems but to focus attention on something wrong in my point of view. So I don't understand why you need to point here what is not your problem. If it is God's (pulseaudio's) will, who am I to argue with?!

Sorry, I saw your response scroll by on IRC but wasn't in a position to act on it at the time. Responding in the bug would have been useful! For reference: 12:01 tsimonq2: around? I commented on the bug. 12:02 tsimonq2: since it's possible you might want to put the Breaks in indicator-sound-gtk2, I don't want to accept it as-is without your comment. 12:02 tsimonq2: if you do, then it'll want adding to lubuntu-default-settings too I guess? 12:05 tsimonq2: aside from that your upload for indicator-sound-gtk2 looks fine.

Perhaps both lubuntu-default-settings and indicator-sound-gtk2 need to Breaks: lubuntu-meta (<< 0.65.2)? I'm not certain I've got that the right way round. The idea is that the tools won't change to use pavucontrol until lubuntu-meta has been updated and pulled in pulseaudio.

You asked for lubuntu-meta and lubuntu-default-settings to move to xenial-updates at the same time. I can do that, but users aren't guaranteed to see that at the same time (for example with phased updates). If one breaks the other, then versioned Breaks clauses need to be used to ensure updating ordering. Please could you confirm if this is needed? What will happen if this doesn't happen?

I have personally done a dependency review and it looks fine to me... Also, this exact thing was already done with 16.10 and on... Lastly, indicator-sound-gtk2 was never accepted into xenial-proposed, which has been sitting in there *for over a month*. That fixes the problems Tiago described with the volume applet not opening pavucontrol, and *is not a regression in lubuntu-default-settings*. To be honest, I'm a bit frustrated... I do not want to drag this on longer than it already has been.

[Bug 1710993] Re: PulseAudio requirement breaks Firefox on ALSA-only systems after 55.0.1 update
Ok, I was realy afraid to break my system, so I used qemu, this time the sound works on Firefox as expected after the proposed upgrade, and the sound icon on tray was almost correct: there is one master bar - working properly - and a link to Sound Settings, that I suppose should lead to more advanced settings, but it does nothing when clicked over, and still there wasn't the pavucontrol requirement, I installed it but the Sound Settings still do not launch nothing, it maybe misconfigured or there is a missing requirement. I am sad to say the proposed update bring a plenty of useless stuff, as some unity packages, I am not sure it is safe to release these packages without a dependency review. Moreover, I am deeply heartbroken about this situation, as it adds a pulseaudio process that keeps running forever, once more time the system paying the price of a corporation's misled decision. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1710993 Title: PulseAudio requirement breaks Firefox on ALSA-only systems after 55.0.1 update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-sound-gtk2/+bug/1710993/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Wearing my ~ubuntu-sru hat: This seems like a pretty radical change. There was some IRC discussion here: https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2017/08/30/%23ubuntu-devel.html My conclusion: +1 in principle (I have yet to review the change itself), for the following reasons: This change impacts Lubuntu only, and I'm told that this has been discussed and agreed within the Lubuntu community and approved by an Lubuntu release manager. Though fixing Firefox packaging to support ALSA is another option, I appreciate that this may be beyond feasible for Lubuntu in practice, and I think it's appropriate for Lubuntu to decide for themselves how they want to approach fixing this. Clearly the Firefox update has broken user experience on Lubuntu, so I think a fix is justified under existing SRU policy. It's a grey area as to whether this is a "change to the environment" or a regression caused by the Firefox update, but either way I think the spirit of the SRU policy is that the SRU team have the remit to approve a fix.

[Bug 1710993] Re: PulseAudio requirement breaks Firefox on ALSA-only systems after 55.0.1 update
Tiago: upstream (mozilla) has made it very clear they won't be changing anything on their end. All the bugs you linked are closed as WONTFIX. This is up to the distribution to solve: either add pulseaudio to lubuntu, or compile firefox with alsa support (and maybe patch it if Mozilla drops alsa support completely in the future). Simon: any progress on this? Anything we can help with?
